Gonzaga vs Pacific...predictions and other thoughts
“They go to school. They do their homework. They shake hands. They say please and thank you. But once you throw that ball up, they will rip your heart out and watch you bleed.” -- Jay Bilas
UOP averages 67 ppg. Zag defense holds them to 10 points below their average. I'm feeling the pressure of my last WAG being the top prediction, so I put a bit more thought and research into it. lol
Closer than it should be, but still a 20-point victory. 80-60.
Melson will have a great game. Several backups will see more playing time than usual. Tillie will be cheering for his teammates, but keeping the high-fives to a minimum.
My posts indicate that I don't seem to follow college basketball all that closely.
Last game was 81-61 at their house. Even with some injuries and a shaky start GU put up 96 points against USF. Plus, J3 had a rough evening on Thursday. So, I'm going to venture the Zags put up 90-100 points and have a good defensive day Saturday. However, I can't bring myself to predict a 40 point spread against Pacific. Maybe not even a 30 point spread .... But, what the heck ....
A Saturday matinee vs. U of Pacific.
Allow me to be a bit more specific.
The Tigers from Stockton don't look to fare well
against a Zag team that continues to gel,
and all season long, have been quite terrific !
GU - 92
UOP - 60
